A funky soul-boogie is in the works to kick off the Summer with a thick stew of old school rhythms and illuminated rhymes. Join Afrofreque on Saturday, June 7th, 2008 for a night of live, soulful hip-hop at Lambert’s BBQ in downtown Austin with special guest DJ and Diggin’ Deep soul shake-down soul boy, JJ Lopez.


With a strong ever-present knowledge of 70’s Soul, Jazz, Disco and Garage, JJ Lopez serves up an uplifting history lesson with his mastery of replicating traditional DJ techniques of the 1970’s Soul or Disco. With over 12 years of Djing and collecting power under his belt, he can be heard every Sat. afternoon, on the air at KRTU 91.7 FM, Jazz for San Antonio. He is the host of the Diggin’ Deep Soul Shake-down show. Each Sat. afternoon, he presents 2 hours of Soul Jazz, Funk, Boogaloo and Soul to the masses. The Diggin’ Deep Soul Shake-down features both new and classic Soul Jazz artists from his personal collection. Tune in at http://www.KRTU.org. Out on the town: He can be heard playing various club nights around San Antonio.
